I have been “tagged” on the Facebook and Blogging world, so I finally decided to do it. I’m not going to “tag” anyone, but whoever wants to do it, I would love to read your 25 things!
Here are the official rules if you want to do it:
Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
1. I was adopted as a baby. My birth mother was only 15 and since my mom badly wanted a girl, my parents adopted me!
2. From the time I was five years old, I wanted to be a teacher and would play school on a big chalkboard in my basement. But even before then, I would tell my mom all kinds of stories and she would “publish” them for me. I love teaching, but being a children’s author is my dream job.
3. Whenever I hear music, whether out loud or in my head, I have to start dancing. Not good dancing, but crazy and weird dance moves. I love it!
4. I started choir when I was four and continued until I graduated high school. At times I wanted to quit, but my mom wouldn’t let me. I am glad she didn’t, and I really miss it.
5. I am very picky when it comes to my classroom. Everything has to be perfect and in its perfect place. I really like things the way I like them, even if it means Tyler has to redo hanging up pictures because they look wrong.
6. It annoys me when people don’t use spell check or at least read over what they wrote. It doesn’t make sense, and it looks bad. (If you see mistakes in mine, it’s because Tyler did a bad editing job!)
7. I am an adult who loves macaroni and cheese with cut up hot dogs.
8. When I’m going through a 24 marathon, I find it hard to go out in public because I keep asking myself, “Do these people know what’s going on?!” (nuclear bombs, nerve gas, terrorists, etc.)
9. The only yogurt I will eat is peach.
10. I hate being alone. Whenever Tyler leaves the room, I ask where he’s going and sometimes just follow him.
11. I can’t paint my nails. Once I tried painting my toenails red, and it looked like my toes were bleeding; it was scary. Now I just pay people to do it for me.
12. Since I started teaching, I go to bed and wake up early, even on the weekends. If I’m not in bed by 9:00, I am very cranky the next morning.
13. I eat ranch dressing on almost everything.
14. I am not very outgoing around people I don’t know. I think this makes some people think I am stuck up, but I’m not!
15. I have the worst nerves. If someone just walks around the corner, I gasp and jump.
16. I am seriously addicted to coloring my hair. I go every other month to get it done.
17. I love buying books. Tyler gets mad when I don’t use the library, but I just like to own my books. I can’t really explain it.
18. I always drink out of a straw.
19. I get sucked into Lifetime movies very easily, so I try to avoid that channel.
20. I met Tyler online. I was embarrassed about it for a while, and even made up a different story of how we met. But, after three years of marriage, I am finally okay with it.
21. Sometimes I am afraid to have kids, because I fear that they will be obese. (I think this comes from watching too much Maury Povich in high school).
22. I always drink bottled or filtered water.
23. I often think if things are more expensive, then they are better. That is why I get mad when Tyler buys no name brands.
24. I played Rugby my senior year of high school. I loved it and wish I would’ve played more sports sooner.
25. I am a people pleaser, and I find it hard to say no to people. (Which is why I spent two lifetimes doing this silly tag!)
